Signs with Seattle
The Seahawks signed Bell to a one-year contract Friday, Chad Krispinsky of WKBN First News 27 reports.
ANALYSIS
Bell spent the last three seasons in Cleveland, where he carved out a significant role on special teams. He appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Browns in 2024. The 28-year-old safety will spend the offseason working to establish himself as a reliable special-teamer with his new team.

Increased role ahead
Bell will start at free safety against the Eagles on Sunday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Bell will see a major uptick in work during Week 6 with Ronnie Hickman (ankle) and Grant Delpit (concussion) inactive against Philadelphia. The 27-year-old hasn't seen much action this season outside of special teams work, but on 214 defensive snaps last season did have four passes defended, including two interceptions.

Passes physical
Bell (shin) passed a physical Monday.
ANALYSIS
As a result, Bell will be eligible to suit up and play come Week 1 versus the Cowboys. He projects to contribute primarily on special teams and play only a minor role in the defensive backfield in 2024.

Heads to PUP list
The Browns placed Bell (shin) on the active/PUP list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Despite Bell's placement on the active/PUP list, he's eligible to practice or play at any point this preseason. The 27-year-old appeared in 17 games in 2023, recording 28 total tackles and four passes defended, including two interceptions. Bell is expected to compete for another depth role in the Browns' secondary once he returns to full health.

Finishes 2023 strong
Bell recorded 28 tackles, four passes defensed, two interceptions and forced a fumble over 17 regular-season games in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Bell was mostly a special teams contributor but was needed more on the defense after Grant Delpit (groin) was unavailable from Week 15 on through the playoffs. Most of his production came in those final four weeks of the regular season, as the Browns cemented their postseason berth. Entering his third NFL season, Bell's work on special teams is enough to earn him a spot in 2024, and his play while Delpit was out showed he's up to task on defense.

Snags first interception of career
Bell recorded five tackles (four solo) while intercepting a pass and deflecting another in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Bell was to secure his first career interception as time expired in the fourth quarter, picking off a hail-mary attempt by Justin Fields. The safety stepped into a larger role after Grant Delpit (groin) was placed on injured reserve earlier in the week, notching a season-high five tackles.

Returning against Tampa Bay
Bell (concussion) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Bell was sidelined for Cleveland's Week 11 matchup against Buffalo with a concussion. However, he cleared the league's protocol and practiced in full on Friday to clear his way for a return against Tampa Bay. In nine games this season, Bell has tallied five tackles while playing 137 of his 146 snaps on special teams.

Ruled out for Week 11
Bell (concussion) has been ruled out for the Browns' Week 11 matchup with the Bills, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Bell suffered a concussion in Week 10 versus the Dolphins and will now be forced to miss at least one contest while recovering. He'll now shift his focus to being ready for Week 12 against the Buccaneers and in the meantime, Grant Delpit and John Johnson will remain the top options at safety for the Browns on Sunday.
Nov 13, 2022
Ruled out with concussion
Bell (concussion) won't return for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports.
ANALYSIS

Survives cutdown day
Bell secured a spot on the Browns' 53-man roster, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official website reports.
ANALYSIS
With that news, Bell became the first undrafted rookie free agent to land a spot on the roster under Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry. Bell earned the designation by his play during preseason games. He forced two fumbles and had seven tackles. A product of Division II West Florida, Bell will serve in a depth capacity at safety.
